It is now well-established that women of minority sexual orientation are disproportionately affected by the obesity epidemic, with nearly three-quarters of adult lesbians overweight or obese, compared to half of heterosexual women. In stark contrast, among men, heterosexual males have nearly double the risk of obesity compared to gay males.http://projectreporter.nih.gov...

I saw a video by a gay vlogger once, who said that this dates back to the Aids epidemic among gays.Because everybody was afraid that a potential sex partner might have Aids, they put a lot of effort into looking fit and healthy, to show they didn't have it.And that just stuck and became part of the gay culture.

Weird... guess it's that whole "taking pride on yourself" movement. Obesity is a sickness and cannot be excused.

Most lesbians drink from the furry cup because they are to ugly to get a man. FACT

No, lesbians are lesbians because they are attracted to women, not because they are too ugly to "get a man". FACT

It's hard for me to comment, most every lesbian I know is overweight but most every girl I know is overweight because this is Wisconsin and if you want a skinny girl you better be either very rich, very lucky, or just refusing to feed her.

Beliefs in a nutshell:
- The Ends never justify the Means.
- Objectivity is secondary to subjectivity.
- The War on Drugs is the worst policy in the U.S.
- Most people worship technology as a religion.
- Computers will never become sentient.

So that would mean 90% of men are overweight vs. 50% of women. I call bullsh1t.

b) Obese =/= overweight. Overweight actually has a lower mortality rate than normal weight. Stating "75% of lesbians obese" and than saying "75% of lesbians are obese or overweight" is just flat out BSing. That's almost as bad as having a headline of "100% of Lesians Obese" and saying 100% of lesbians are either obese, overweight, normal weight or underweight.
